      There's still lots I left out of video or did not see. This video was 1 hour 15 minutes. Didn't wanna cut it out but had to make it somewhat worth people's time. Whenever I go back for round 2, I'll be sure to add. Glad you enjoy the tour! Thank you again.

    It was almost like a tour of an outdoor sculpture garden. Both the tombs and the statues were beautifully done. Very talented artists. I liked the mausoleum with the urns. The personal items next to the urns was touching. The metal gates remind me of ones we have here in Québec.

      The original video was 1 hour 15 minutes. I had to cut out so many beautiful gravestones. I'll surely be back here to film more videos on this place. As for that mausoleum, I will do the same. There's so much inside I didn't even film. It surely is touching! I'm very happy you enjoyed this one. I really tried my best to keep it as respectful and enjoyable as possible!

    21:53- Lucian Napoleon Brunswig's Tomb (1854-1943) is based-off the Rosicrucians.
    Rosicrucians are Monotheistic, Christian Mysticism also played a huge role the Egyptian Revival.

    We visited this cemetery on our first trip to NOLA just before the pandemic. So glad we did! Your video showed many things we didn't see, some we did. We took an Uber there, and spent the afternoon. The Uber guy picking us up was a little sketch on what a pick-up would be at a cemetery. My wife and I just watched the whole video on our TV together. Thanks.

    When the curtain is placed over a mausoleum like at 17:25 it does, in fact mean, there is an interment imminent. As in most likely that day or the day following. Before the casket can be turd inside the crypt some brave soul gets to climb all the way in there to open up the vents. Did you know there were vents? Do you want to know what would happen without the vents?

    I want to have the option to go all natural but in Wisconsin and many others we can’t. It’s ok to put me in the ground with all those chemicals and trash but I can’t be put under a tree and go back into the earth. Even if it’s a woods or field that is dedicated to this but there isn’t enough money for the funeral industries to make money this way.
    P.S if I had the money I would start a organization to put these places together in every state like we have cemetery’s. If anyone knows of a way to help me with this please email me or something because things have to change. I just got ride of 2 plots because I want to go wrapped in a cotton sheet and placed in the ground. That’s all. If the family and friends won’t to make a day of this, fill in the whole and celebrate my life. Love you guys. Thanks for the video

    25:09 his body is not there.....Jefferson Davis, the first and only president of the Confederate States, passed away on December 6, 1889. His death occurred in New Orleans, Louisiana, U.S., where he fell ill during a steamboat trip. Despite his illness, he refused to call for a doctor. An employee sent a telegram to his wife, Varina Howell, who came to his aid
    A grand funeral was held in New Orleans, and he was initially buried there. However, later, his remains were moved to a large tomb in Richmond, Virginia
